CARDIFF – Steady bowling from Lionel Baker and Gavin Tonge helped West Indies “A” fight back after they conceded a healthy first innings lead in their three-day cricket tour match against Glamorgan yesterday.
Baker captured two wickets for 18 runs from 13 overs, and Tonge took two for 38 from 14 overs, as Glamorgan, leading by 110 on first innings, reached 126 for six in their second innings at the close on the second day of the match at Sophia Gardens.
The revival for the “A” team started, after they had been dismissed for 151 in their first innings between lunch and tea.
Chadwick Walton hit the top score of 34 for the visitors, and all-rounder Imran Khan made 33, after the “A” team wobbled to 76 for six at lunch.
Walton and Khan added 68 for the seventh wicket before the visitors lost their last four wickets for 30 runs in the space of 29 balls.
Former England international Robert Croft was the pick of the Glamorgan bowlers with four wickets for 39 runs from 10.3 overs of off-spin. (CMC)
